PHILOSOPHY AND PSYCHOLOGY 3

'Thatcher gene' is key to needing less sleep. Scientists at Centre for Applied Genomics in Philadelphia, US, discovered that people carrying the gene variant ‘p.Tyr362His’ were able to function on fewer than five hours of sleep per night.

The researchers studied 100 sets of twins to find out which genetic variants were responsible for changes in sleep patterns. The study revealed that those with the variant chose to sleep for less time than those without it, and were also far better at mental tasks after being deprived of sleep for 38 hours. One twin with the gene mutation had 40 percent fewer lapses of performance during 38 hours without sleep and required less recovery sleep afterward – sleeping only eight hours after the period of extended sleep deprivation compared with his twin brother, who slept for 9.5 hours. “This study emphasizes that our need for sleep is a biological requirement, not a personal preference,” said American Academy of Sleep Medicine President Dr Timothy Morgenthaler.
Philosophers can’t agree on how much we should help refugees—or even whether we should.

Jodi Goldstein, the managing director of Harvard’s Innovation Lab, brags that “when Zuckerberg came back to visit, he said ‘Maybe I wouldn’t have dropped out if the i-lab had existed.’”

Opened in 2011—five years after Zuckerberg left Harvard to focus on theFacebook.com, an early draft of Facebook—the i-lab is 30,000 square feet of flexibly outfitted space located on Harvard’s Allston, Massachusetts, campus, replete with resources such as grants, lectures, and accelerator programs.

If a tree falls in a forest.

A fallen tree in a forest "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

" is a philosophical thought experiment that raises questions regarding observation and knowledge of reality. History[edit] Philosopher George Berkeley, in his work, A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge (1710), proposes, "But, say you, surely there is nothing easier than for me to imagine trees, for instance, in a park [...] and nobody by to perceive them.[1] [...] The objects of sense exist only when they are perceived; the trees therefore are in the garden [...] no longer than while there is somebody by to perceive them Some years later, a similar question is posed. Albert Einstein is reported to have asked his fellow physicist and friend Niels Bohr, one of the founding fathers of quantum mechanics, whether he realistically believed that 'the moon does not exist if nobody is looking at it.' [edit] The possibility of unperceived existence[edit]

Robert Hanks · On Putting Things Off · LRB 10 September 2015. When I hear other people talking about procrastination, I find myself getting proprietorial: surely their fleeting pauses are as nothing to mine.

Procrastination is the main way I express anxiety and depression, if I can use these medicalised, dignifying terms. It’s franker to say that I put things off because much of the time I’m frightened and sad (too frightened and sad for procrastination to be enough of an outlet: I also have an array of psychosomatic symptoms: rashes, headaches and stomach disorders – not that the line between procrastination and illness is necessarily sharp, if it’s there at all).

Job gone, I sat around trying to write, managing bits and pieces, but earning very little.

Lucy is part of Generation Y, the generation born between the late 1970s and the mid 1990s. She’s also part of a yuppie culture that makes up a large portion of Gen Y. I have a term for yuppies in the Gen Y age group—I call them Gen Y Protagonists & Special Yuppies, or GYPSYs. A GYPSY is a unique brand of yuppie, one who thinks they are the main character of a very special story.

Why Some Dreams Should Not Be Pursued. Recently, a friend of mine met a woman while on vacation in another country.

They had immediate chemistry and decided to keep in touch after he left. As the months passed by, he became more and more enamored with her, telling me that he had never met a woman like this before. He said he hadn’t felt this way since he met his last serious ex. Apparently the feeling was mutual, as the woman continued battling through time zones to keep in touch with him as well. Soon, despite living on different continents, they conjured up plans to see each other again.
